Today I have:

• Got out of bed at lunchtime after a very long, but enjoyable lie-in
• Decided to save on water and electricy by not having a shower - I had one last night before bed, I don't need another
• looked over all my paperwork and made notes on what needs to be done
• posted on here again, and have received some nice, and helpful replies
• watched a hockey game

This evening I am going to:

• drink the bottle of wine thats been in my fridge for weeks
• find something to eat in the cupboard
• have a shower and get into my pj's
• have a quiet, inexpensive night in

Cornball

Bit of a mixed bag today:

1) Cashed my £100 Post Office cashback which i received after a £15 spent. Still expecting £43 from quidco.
2) Collected £100 from flatmate owed for deposit.
3) This is the kicker: went to Bluewater, BUT!! Only spent £40 (I know, only! :rolleyes:) but that included a new top for the work xmas do, return fare there and home, lunch and some toiletries. I have £160 left of the £200 and I will take that to the bank on my lunch break on Monday. £100 going to debts, the rest will probably be swallowed up by my gas and water.
4) Bought root touch up on sale, to do my own hair (used to to spend £90 every 6 weeks!).
5) Used up 2 day old home bread for brekkie.
6) Used up frozen food for din.
7) Going to set the breadmaker timer for brekkie tomorrow.
8) Turned down invite to a party as I don't want to waste money on alcohol so another Saturday night in for this singleton.
9) Pruned flowers and watered instead of chucking and buying new ones like I used to.
10) Checked online banking. Doing well so far this month.

Take care all.

Just back from Football, pennies in Back pocket:j . Team I watched Lost Grimsby Won:j :j :j :j :j

Curry 5 Minutes from hitting pan. Rice is on. (Freda has declared an Exclusion Zone)
Going to Supermarket to get Freda some Plonk de Legs, Freddie some beer (£10)
Tonights task. Check Bank and do the shuffles.
Got two free tea coasters today, unwanted mail had a DVD in it. Fantastic.

Sounds like lots of us having DFW nights in - (I can feel a PJ party coming on - steady now)

Hung up more washing!
Another load on 30o and another load on the bannister
Looked at tesco clubcard offers - ta Andan
Thinking up cunning ways to use less oil at £60 a week (for a not very toasty house) I need to seriously rethink
Currently have candles on (heat and ambience)
Extra jumper on (can barely move)
Offered to take DD two pals tomorrow to help out her mum (who is very good to me and does lots of driving so she saves me petrol; by being nice tomorrow I help her out too - not exactly alutristic but realistic)
Can hear heating clicking in, going to turn it off - oil is outrageous

Enjoy cheap/free nights in xx

Evening all and happy birthday Miss Piggy!
My dfw things for today;

• cut out coupon fpr £2 off 30 ltrs of petrol at Shell which I intend to use
• Packaged and posted Ebay item sold
• Took back cables which we didn’t need for a refund since a cable guy is coming out instead
• Moved money from one account to another
• 2 lots of washing done and hung indoors (30 and 40 deg)
• Brought part of DH X’mas present which he kind of needed and has already started using today which was cheaper than budgeted
• Found 1p
• Got 1 pk of reduced Yakults for 45p which I love but can’t justify paying full price for
• Resisted buying a cd album from Tesco today as I will wait for the £5 off £30 spend voucher in tomorrows NOTW paper
• Will answer potential Ebay buyers question shortly
• Put a bid for Ebay item through Rpoints which I won (so I should get points back)

That’s all I can think of.
